This is a top notch company and has not experienced a long-term price depression for its market price during the last 10 years. Only once did the price drop more than 30% and that was a direct reflection of an entire market wide price drop due to COVID back in March of 2020. Look at this historical depiction of the market price for Huntington Ingalls over the last 10 years.
Now look at the market price over the last month:
Today the market price opens at $194.36, yesterday the stock price dropped to $189.76. Thus, there is a good chance the market price will drop over the next few weeks to the preset buy price of $179 per share. If the market hits the price, this Fund will again take a $20,000 position. Given the fact that there are currently no other potential buy opportunities in the existing portfolio of 46 possible investments (ones that have been vetted and analyzed), the Fund will buy a second $20,000 tranche.
The sell price is set for $226 per share for the first tranche. If a second tranche is purchased, that tranche’s sell price is set for $251 per share reflecting the multiple times the stock price exceeded $250 per share over the last five years.
Overall, this company is solid, pays a very good dividend and is considered an excellent value investor’s opportunity at $179 per share. Act on Knowledge.
